Fun Facts

Design background

  • I studied under Jon Kolko at Austin Center for Design (2012-2013), learning a repeatable human-centered approach to design thinking.

  • I have designed over 30 products - from native apps to responsive websites for companies large and small.

  • My favorite UI design ever was for a new radiology reading platform (dark mode, oh yea!).

  • I once designed a $70K powerpoint presentation.
